Bio based phenolic resins and adhesives derived from forestry residues wastes and lignin
(2012-11-10)The work presented here aims to produce bio-phenolic compounds from forestry biomass (residues, wastes and lignin), and substitute petroleum-based phenol with the bio-phenolic compounds to produce high quality bio-based ... -
Development of key components of a nitrogen budget for a forested watershed on the Canadian boreal plain
(2009)This investigation, which took place as part of the Forest Watershed and Riparian Disturbance (FORWARD) study in west-central Alberta on the Boreal Plain, measured key components of a nitrogen (N) budget in a relatively ... -
Economic wood supply from alternative silvicultural systems : a case study in Ontario's boreal forest
(1997)A modified version of the Harvest Schedule Generator model (HSG) was used to predict the economic wood supply from alternative silvicultural systems on a case study forest (Seine River Forest) In northwestern Ontario’s ... -
Integrating a tactical harvest-scheduling model with a log sort-yard location model
(2014-01-22)Failure to sort logs prior to their transportation to a mill can result in a loss of value in the forest products supply chain—for unsorted, higher value logs can be used in a low-value product where lower valued logs ... -
Inventorying cutover logging residues: A remote sensing approach
(2012-11-10)The purpose of this study was to quantify the volume of logging residues within forest harvest blocks, using an airborne, remote sensing based method. The objective was to measure the volume using a field technique, and ... -
Moisture reduction and nutrient retention associated with field-drying forest harvest residues on clearcut sites in Northwestern Ontario, Canada
(2012-11-10)The increased utilization of forest harvest residues as supplemental, inexpensive and renewable energy raises two key concerns: 1) continued removal may negatively affect long-term site productivity; and 2) because 50-60% ...
